They look great. Have you ever tried making your own sweeten condensed milk? I've started doing that (as well as evaporated milk) because then I don't have to think ahead about making sure I have the cans in my cupboard - I always have the stuff on hand to make it.

They look delicious. I wish though, that there was another way to make them without using condensed milk. That stuff makes my thighs swell just looking at it. Maybe honey? Or even light maple syrup? I know... but condensed milk is yummy.

Just printed off the recipe and super excited to try them with the kids!We'll might change them up a bit because my little guy doesn't like chocolate- I KNOW, CRAZY!!!Anyways, although we are lucky enough to have peanut-free granola bars up here, I think these would be alot cheaper and probably more tasty too! :)

I am allergic to nuts of all kinds and this is a definite try as I have a hard time finding any on the market or even recipes for homemade use that do not contain nuts in some form or fashion. Thank you.

My husband and I just polished off our first batch of these (I used raisins instead of cherries) in less than a week. I'm planning to make more tomorrow, and will be instituting a one bar, per person, per day ration. Hubs has a nut allergy as well, and I'm picky about my granola bars, so I usually by two different kinds; now, I can make my own! I can't wait to try different fruits and things in this recipe!

When cooking, please make sure to follow kitchen hygiene and safety -- cook meat until internal temperature is at safe levels, always check labels for allergens, and use caution in the kitchen -- I love sharing recipes, but I am not liable for damages done as a result of trying these recipes.
